 * I already know that you can import from other blogging platforms like Blogger
   and Movable Type, but I would like to import from another wordpress blog. Does
   anyone know an easy way to do that. I thought of importing via RSS, but that 
   doesn’t give me all of my archived postings.

   Make sure you read everything and backup everything (at least twice). Personally
   I would go with the export to MT and reimport trick. If possible I suggest either
   setting up a trial blog on your domain or [local machine](http://codex.wordpress.org/Test_Driving_WordPress)
   to test first.

 * I figured it out by backing up from wp and then restoring through the admin panel
   for mysql on the new site.
